    vinodhKrishna , Make sure no windows patch is pending and you are on the latest version of power bi.

    Also, check if your user has access to the install folder or if you have admin right on the machine

    I have the same issue.  Different environments in Python - for the data I want to set the pythin environment different the folders presented in the option.

     

    The scripts run fine - jupyter lab and otebooks - but i need to point Power BIi to a praticualr enviroment of Anaconda

     

    All I see is folders in the desktop - and secondly when I select other - it does not let me enter the path

     

    Please help

     

    Thanks,

    Anil
